Editor'sNote

Informational interviews are informal, one-on-one conversations with a professional in a field or industry you're interested in. They offer valuable insights, guidance, and networking opportunities.

To conduct one, reach out to someone in your desired field, request a meeting, prepare thoughtful questions, and be genuinely curious and appreciative during the interview.

Remember, it's not about asking for a job but rather seeking advice and building connections.

Scholarship Opportunity

Overseas Press Club of America (OPC)

Graduate and undergraduate students at North American colleges and universities or American students studying abroad are invited to apply for Overseas Press Club Foundation Scholar Awards. An applicant must be a college junior, senior or graduate student enrolled in a degree program at the application deadline and have demonstrated an interest in international journalism.

In a typical year, the Foundation grants 18 scholar awards for the pursuit of academic goals. Winners receive either a $3,000 scholarship for independent work or a $4,000 fellowship to be used to fund time in a bureau of a leading news organization such as the Associated Press, Reuters, Bloomberg or the Wall Street Journal.

Our program is aimed primarily at helping students, of whatever nationality, who wish to pursue international journalism, rather than returning to their countries of origin and becoming local reporters. Our program is also heavily oriented toward helping journalists launch their careers rather than assisting mid-career professionals.
